Fox Under My Shed
27 Answers
Hi I used to have a hedgehog under my shed. Last week I saw a fox dig in under my shed where the hole was and I think he has made it his home. My cats are always looking in there with their fur up. As much as I love animals I am worried about the fox's living in my garden. My patio doors are only 15ft away from the shed. I don't want to block it up in case he's in there. How can I politely request he moves! Any suggestions please.

Hiya, Foxes hate dog's and humans and an age old humane trick is to put some dog or human hair on the ground where you don't want them to be. (they hate the smell) If you don't have a dog, explain and ask a friend or neighbour to donate some after grooming their dog and pop it around the entrance to the hole (shove a couple of stones on top to keep it from blowing away)....

My post did not contain "negative criticism". It contained a statement of fact, followed by a simple question. As I said, you are in the fox's territory. Not only that, but you, as the usurper, are putting the needs of your cats, dog and children ahead of his needs. I think this fox has showed remarkable restraint in merely moving in under your shed.

The culling of foxes is permitted by law, however you must be sure to enrol in the services of a pest control company who is able and willing to rise to the challenge. As a member of the public, you have the right to protect your property and livestock from damage.
